What is Omni Flash best for?

Omni Flash is a strong fit for 3-10-second videos that you expect to revise. Start from text, an image, or a source clip, then use follow-up instructions to change the result.

Can Omni Flash edit an existing video?

Yes. Upload a source clip up to 10 seconds and describe the edit. Add "Keep everything else the same" when only one part should change.

Can I start from an image?

Yes. Use an image to preserve the subject, composition, or starting look. Say whether it should guide the first frame, style, or identity.

How long are Omni Flash clips?

Choose from 3 to 10 seconds. Use the shortest duration that gives the action enough time to read.

How should I write the prompt?

For a new video, describe the subject, action, setting, camera move, and ending. For an edit, keep it shorter: name the change and what should stay the same.

Should I use Omni Flash or Veo AI?

Choose Omni Flash for conversational editing or when you already have an image or clip to build from. Compare Veo AI when the selected Veo model offers the resolution, audio, or camera controls your shot needs.

Create Videos, Then Refine Them with Omni Flash

Turn text, an image, or a clip into a 3-10-second video. Then refine it with plain-language instructions.

See Omni Flash in action

Play three ways to use it: reveal a product, animate a still, or restyle a clip. Copy any prompt to make it your own.

Prompt example

Get better Omni Flash results

Use these techniques to control the shot and limit unwanted changes.

Request one continuous shot

Omni Flash may add cuts by default. Add "single continuous shot" or "no scene cuts" when continuity matters.

Keep edit requests short

Name the change plainly, then add "Keep everything else the same."

Time each beat

For a staged 10-second clip, use ranges such as [0-3s], [3-6s], and [6-10s].

Write exclusions into the prompt

There is no separate negative prompt. Add "No dialogue" or "No extra sound effects" to the main prompt.
